To Download

The installers and portable executable files are available on the Spider Suite's Github repository page or official website download page.

Spider Suite currently supports Windows and Linux operating systems with x64 architecture.

Simply Install the MSVC-redistributable package which comes with Spider Suite (SpiderSuite/vcredist_x64.exe).
